Righteousness

The work of righteousness will be peace,
And the effect of righteousness,
quietness and assurance forever. Isaiah 32:17 NKJ

There is none Lord, like You
Who lives! Beauty so true
The Commander of life
Wants me as His wife
Only in Your presence, rejoice
Son of God, Jesus, my choice.
He's alive! Coming, ready!
He's the Judge, now are you ready!

And the work of righteousness will be peace,
And the service of righteousness,
quietness and confidence forever. Isaiah 32:17 NAS

No doubt, those who wait upon, hope in, and put their trust in the Lord Jesus will dwell in safety forever, and our hearts will be calm. We will rejoice as we see this time of judgment coming on, by His grace, faith will keep our hope alive. Our joy will be made complete as we seek righteousness, and the fruit of it will be peace and trust. When we hear the voice of the Lord drawing near, OH! what joy! what sweet anticipation! The word speaks of things that must happen before the end. God thank You for clearly giving commands that guide us to Jesus, our Righteousness. Help us to obey Your commands. Lord, help us to know Your word, to hear Your voice, and to rejoice! In Jesus name, we ask for revelation of Your heart, Father, and strength and endurance to stand.

Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it; let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy; they will sing before the Lord, for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his truth. Psalm 96:11-13

The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom's voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete.
John 3:29 NIV

"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command." John 15:9-14

Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.
John 16:24 NIV
